如何隐藏具有导入类型的基本TypeScript类型

Question

I am importing the following type with TypeScript 1.8:

import { Option } from "react-select-props";

However when I try to create an object of type Option, Intellisense thinks it corresponds to the following type from the core library:

declare var Option: {new(text?: string, value?: string, defaultSelected?: boolean, selected?: boolean): HTMLOptionElement; };

It compiles with the correct type from react-select-props however. Am I missing something? How to hide this base type with the imported type and make sure Intellisense reflects this? I am using Visual Studio 2015 Update 3, and TypeScript Tools 2.0.6.

You can rename it:

import { Option as ReactPropsOption } from "react-select-props";

let options: ReactPropsOption = {};
